How do you know little thought has been put into the set up.

 

The way I see it the academy is vitally important to the long term future of the club. We need good solid and experienced paeople running it and also integrating the "product" into the first team.

 

This is were JP and SL come in. They are highly qualified coaches who have been brought through or brought in to oversee this and make it a success.

 

Why move them to first team and then have to recruit at the academy level when you can bring in a manager who can also fit into the long term project. (DF brings through young players at Palace)

 

I suspect all these discussion have been had with the relavent people as we need to remember the people running our club are experienced businessmen.

 

One would hope your right, history tells me you might be wrong Fred Barber anybody?

just cos one bloke couldn't hack it doesn't mean everybody will be the same

 

anyway, if barber is as good as we think he'll be back soon enough, won't he

 

won't he?

Surely LSL, having experience of the grass not being greener, isn't a problem? Perhaps this feeling of 'possibly moving on...' refers to Jimmy, with him apparently openly declaring his interest in managing the first team full time (I've not read this anywhere, but take it on good authority). But, happen it's better to have Jimmy with his nose pushed out of joint a bit, instead of having some ill-advised management 'trio' of old-boys (and one proven failure at first team management level). I was of the 'anyone but Big Mick' school of thought - so I'm naturally relieved it's not him.

 

Time will tell, but I've a feeling, nay, it's a nailed on certainty, that pitchforks are already against the grinder and torches are being doused in readiness. I reckon a run of LDL in any permutation will see grey marls and bedsheets unfurled amongst the yoof. Werthers spat out in disgust by the older lot. The first one to utter "I wanted Mick McCarthy..." however, should be offered as human sacrifice...

I presume it's like any career. Highs and lows for many, form is only temporary though.

Apologies if been mentioned above, but confirmed news that Dougie Freedman won't be in charge of Palace for their game tonight.

 

Looks like it's pretty nailed on he's our new manager.

... and especially if he's no longer their manager.

 

Coppell back to Selhurst Park? Should make shower time for the academy more interesting.

I don't know a great deal about his management style other than that Palace were organised against us and deserved the win. At least he isn't Megson, Kean or Keane so good luck to him - if he gets confirmed as boss. If he stays at Palace, bollocks to him

They're already debating the various merits and shortcomings of (arse)Ole Bummer Sexwee-ar on Holmesdale.net :) Some wags are taking it in good spirits with light-hearted suggestions like Harry Redknapp, Paul McCartney and Jimmy Savile (Although I think that scouse psychic channeling him would be more appropriate).

I don't know enough about the guy to judge so for that reason i'm out

 

But if he does well then i will back him all the way but if he doesn't he can fuck right off

 

 

That's the spirit!

 

He's not ginger!
